Urban greening and infrastructure projects in Italy

Overview

Italian municipalities continue to implement urban redevelopment projects focused on green infrastructure, pedestrianization, and sustainable mobility.

In Padova, work has commenced on the ‘Padova Garden Park’ in the Prandina area, a €1.66 million project involving a wooded parking lot and the restoration of an ancient convent orchard. Additionally, an executive project for Piazza De Gasperi has been presented; scheduled for late spring 2027, this €200,000 intervention will renovate sidewalks and reorganize parking.

In Bari, construction is set for October 12 on the €4 million pedestrianization of the Starita seafront, part of a broader San Cataldo waterfront regeneration plan. The project will include planting over 390 new trees. In Oristano, LSA Costruzioni has been awarded €371,000 for redeveloping tree-lined avenues, such as Via Cagliari, using drought-resistant plants and permeable paving.

Other regional developments include: • Modica: Over €10 million secured for five works, including a coastal cycle path and a commercial hub at La Sorda. • Palermo: Expansion of the cycling network via Viale Lazio and solar lighting. A new €529,000 parking lot in the Arenella district has been approved, utilizing land confiscated from the mafia. • Ferrara: Inauguration of a redesigned northwest access point with pedestrian and green spaces. • Rimini: Modified plans for a large arena to include a 15,000-square-meter forest and 5,000 parking spaces. • Verbania: Construction has begun on a 52-space parking area in the Intra district. • Civita Castellana: Redesign of via Marinetti with native tree species.
